Christmas Eve at Bubba's

I’ll have a “Bloody Mary “ Christmas

And a “Heineken” New Year

My cup will bubble over

with all the bottle “cheer”

The trimming is lop sided

on the Christmas tree

I fell down and broke the lights

when I staggered off to pee

.when I put toys together,

I came up with extra parts

When toys don’t work right tomorrow

It’s bound to break some hearts.

But I’ll worry about that next year.

To night I’m full of “cheer”

My Christmas is a Merry one

As long as there is beer.
